I do not mean to denigrate the Salem library, but the new books shelf at the Albany library is MUCH more interesting. I read voraciously, but Albany is sourcing titles which have completely escaped my attention--and that of big-name book lists. The same discrimination is being shown in the little store run by the Friends of the library. Their shelves used to be blah, but are now always worth a look.

The staff are super kind and helpful. You can also reserve books using the online platform and then just get them off the reserved shelf and check them out. This feature is so helpful if you want an in/out experience. The library is what makes this City right. They are doing an excellent job!! The books are super awesome - you can find so many great ones, and they pull from other Oregon libraries so you really aren't limited to the books at this location. A fat thumbs up to this library and everything it has to offer. Also - don't forget the cultural pass you can reserve. It was a great way to take your children to local attractions without paying an entry fee. What a great educational opportunity!!!!

My favorite thing about this library though is the Friends of the library store to the right when you first walk in. You can donate books there and they sell them for very cheap as well. I just got two books on my wish list for $3 each and they appeared to be brand new! My mom said they used to have a cafe and she misses that part- but I wasn't here during that time.

I was home visiting my…read morefamily and friends and while here decided to check out the storytime at the library since that's a favorite activity of ours in Chicago. The branch is very small--it's basically one room--so the children's area is smaller and it was packed to the gills. There were 15-20 families here. We sang songs and listened to a couple stories, and the librarian was very animated and engaging. After the stories and songs portion ended, they brought out some toys for the children to play with. And we were given a "welcome baby bag" since we had not been to storytime before, which included a couple of egg shakers, a couple of teething rings, and a small bilingual board book. Cool to get a little welcome gift from the library. This branch was once a Wells Fargo so it has an interesting library/bank combo bank thing going on since there's a working ATM still located on the south side of the building. Inside, the bank remnant that remains (at least the obvious one to patrons) is the vault, which is now the Teen Vault. That's such a fun idea; there's a table in there, some bean bag type chairs, games, a white board asking for ideas for what the teens want to see at the library, and a comfort cabinet that contains things like toothbrushes, pads, lotion, condoms and dental dams, chapstick, etc. Really thoughtful touches, which I'm sure help a lot of local kids. The branch is an official voting drop off location, so if you drive around where the bank's drive-up window once was you'll see there's a big white ballot drop-off there. The library's book drop-off is here as well. There's plenty of parking since this branch has a small lot in front plus it's next to the grocery and pizza place so there's a huge parking lot.
